The following options are available:
To add a single plot from the Previews area to the Plots area,
double-click the desired plot in the Previews area.
To add several plots from the Previews area, use the + buttons in the
Previews area:
To add a row of plots, click the + button at the right of the respective row
in the Previews area.
To add a column of plots (excluding histograms), click the + button at the
bottom of the respective column in the Previews area.
To add the upper right triangle or lower left triangle of plots, use the split
+ button at the bottom right corner of the Previews area.
When the mouse is hovered over any + button, the plots that will be
added when the button is clicked become highlighted in a blue outline.
Further possibilities to add a specific selection of plots to the Plots area
are provided in the Plots group on the Analyze tab of the Ribbon (see
chapter Plots group on page 68).
To add a plot displaying the first parameter(s) of the current listmode file
or to duplicate plots, use the buttons in the Add Plot group of the Home
tab of the Ribbon (see chapter Add Plot group on page 66).
Gallery and hierarchy view
When you add plots to the Plots area, they are added next to each other in a
gallery plot view. You can change the display to a family tree style hierarchy
format by clicking the Hierarchy button in the View group of the Analyze tab
(see chapter View group on page 73). In this format, the plots are displayed
in a tree-like structure with a separate branch for each gate. Selecting the
Gallery button will return you to the gallery plot view.
A plot containing a region which is part of a gate equation is called a
classifier plot. A plot that has no gating regions on it is called an outcome
plot. In hierarchy view, a pathway is drawn between each classifier plot and
between other classifier plots and the subsequent gated outcome plots.
Ungated plots with no gating regions drawn on them appear outside the
hierarchy as orphaned plots.
